ALL THE LEAVES ARE BROWN AND THE SKY IS GREY
It is cold, the streets are bleak and the days are short…well at least they are in my neck of the woods. I would love to make a slow cooked meal: if I had the time. I would love to curl up in bed and read a book: once again, if I had the time. I would love to sit and warm my feet in front of the fire: but we don’t have one!
So what do you do to cheer yourself up when you need a lift? I gave myself some flowers and some for a friend and a bunch for my eldest daughter too. I think all three of us are starting to feel the drag of winter and it is stomping on our usual cheer. I couldn’t go past these immensely cheery orange flowers that I hope will remind all three of us; the days will lengthen, the trees will return to green and we can strip off our winter woollens….soon. @

I light a scented candle, pick camelias from the garden to stow around the house, curl up in front of the fire with a blanket, good book and chocolate.
I cannot wait for longer days and sunshine to warm the top and toes. The appearance of my hyacinths tell me that Spring is coming! Hooray!
cheer up. winter = moss. moss rocks.
Awww….so lovely! Feeling cheerier already x
